Disable nightly Brahms Lullaby alert on iPhone SE

One of the household iPhones is a SE model. Since the recent 26.2 update, the phone, at about 10:50 pm plays the first 3 notes of Brahms Lullaby and has a notification that is time to go to bed.

My iPhone 16 on 26.2 does NOT exhibit the same behavior and I can not find how to disable the sound/notification on the SE.

I have compared settings of the SE with my 16 and can not find differences in settings.

Is this a quirk because of the age of the SE or something I can turn off.

iPhone SE (3rd generation)

Discovered had to go into the Health app to turn off scheduled sleep settings (the pop-up alluded to Health app). That phone had NEVER used the sleep settings in Health or even used Health, yet there was a scheduled setting. Guess AI decided to set up settings from user's phone usage patterns. My iPhone 16 has sleep settings but has never played "lullaby" or showed a pop-up. Must be a quirk of 26.2 on the SE iPhone.

Do you have any third-party Alarm App installed which is interfering with the default Alarm app?
Do you have a BedTime alarm set?
Was there any Alarm symbol on the status bar on top (Watch the 1st GIF below)
Check your Reminders Today Notifications (Watch the 2nd GIF Below). What time is the Today Reminder Set to?

No all iphones with a Sleep Schedule set will play it, unless the volume is turned off. You should only really set a sleep schedule on your main phone , especially if paired to your Watch.
